Page 3 ANN LANDERS, Answers Your Problems Deer Ann: My daughter who is 21 plans to marry in about two months. She's known the boy (also 21) for only four months. He seems to be a nice chap but I'm opposed to this marriage with good reuon. lie was married before and now has custody of a son who is less than two years old. The child is untrained and still on the bottle. I think the fellow is rushing my daughter because the little boy is a problem and he's looking for a mother. My daughter is headstrong and we've had some bitter arguments. She thinks I don't want her to get married because it will mean the end of her contributing $15 a week to the house. I've been a widow for 14 years and for many years I managed without Iter $ir. I can manage without it again. I've pleaded with her to wait six months and see if she still wants to marry the boy. I prom ised to give my blessing u she U eive my plan a try. Can you say a word, please? Mrs. J.M.N. Deer Mrs. J. M. N.: I agree the girl should held off six months before she makes her fine! decision. At 71 she's not exactly a candidate for the Old Folks Heme. Starting out with e child It not easy. If some of these young gals were more realistic about marriage they wouldn't grab Hie first oppor tunity at if it were the last train to Jersey. I hope your daughter listens. Dear Ann: My husband just paid me the highest insult of all time. He bought a portable saf ety deposit box with a padlock. Every night when he gets ready for bed he empties his pockets and locks up the contents in this box. He keeps the key hidden somewhere. I never took a thing in my life that didn't belong to inc. much less go into his pocket.s. He makes a great show of Jixkin" the box and it makes me boil. I ve heard that men sometimes go through a trying period when they hit 50, the same as women. He's 52. Could this have any thing to do with it? Plain Mad. Dear Med: Indeed tome men go through a trying period and often the personality chenget are marked. Insist thai he tee a doctor. And ignore hit odd behevior. He toundt more tick then ornery.
